I got an "Andrew James" mixer for less than £100. Whilst I'm not saying it's as good as a KitchenAid, for the money it's really good I think.
5L bowl, 6 speed and 1500w.

Can someone enlighten me as to why these are so expensive?

Ohh quite a good read, Still quite a lot of money though but looks like you get more. Don't know if the missus would understand the difference though, I think she likes the 'look' of the KA too much! - We shall see!
Thanks for the link though, sir!
Cheers, Will check it out
Thats what i'm so stuck with...
Saying that though, whenever I buy tech goodies, I always get the "You spent £XXX on that little thing!?, WHY!?" ... So I guess we're just in the same boat!

If that's what she really wants and you give her a cheaper alternative, she'll be pleased but at the same time a little disappointed.
Just save up for a bit longer.

The number of sandwich toasties I ate getting my university degree...
My Mum still has & uses the Kenwood one she got as a wedding gift in 1971, pretty impressive. Not sure if you bought one made now it would last the equivalent lifespan as things don't seem to last anymore.A new food mixer, the one we had must have been from the 70's

Living with a baker, they're naff. Better with an equivalent Kenwood. They're just not as pretty.

Change it to "pics of stuff I have inserted into my anus" for epic lols.
My fitting kit for the apline ics-x7 arrived yesterday so I could properly fit it all nice and flush and working with the bose system too.
Excuse the contrast, it was dark.
It still asks me for a language every time I turn it on, so must be a memory wire somewhere I need to find. No doubt won't get it out the dash now.

How you finding it?

Digital cable prices are pretty lol. Looking on AV sites a 5 metre optical cable of good build quality is pretty intense for anything with a name brand. Supermarket own brand cables are much cheaper at under a tenner but they seem to be made of cheese. I did say it's only gonna be for a games console but I don't really want to buy cheese so...
... Looked on eBay and saw these for under £6 @ 5 metres. The stock photos don't really give you an idea of what they're like for material quality but in person they're rather excellent and I can see no difference in the machining and quality compared to a name brand cable.
2nd one down. Bargain.
Oh and a new drop-in for my torch, SolarForce 960 lumens XM-L U2 3 mode:
